Went for a family shoot. Was told 3 days after booking that she wanted a £40 non refundable deposit. Yet the photo shoot was priced at £40 for the hour. On the day we were in her cramped living room with big lights just a meter close to us. Got the photos back on a disc 25 photos out of around 50 in total. She picked ones that needed editing to put on the disc. To say they were awful is an understatement. There were pasty faces, strawberry blonde hair when the kids have a mousy blonde colour hair and they were all ones that we didn't like. So I contacted her to see if we could arrange to meet up and have a look at all the photos. She said no at first. She said I either have the watermarked disc or pay £50 for the 25 photos on a non watermarked one. I said I wasn't happy to do.that since none of.us were happy with the result and that we wouldn't be using her again. She then came back and said we could see all the photos. We did so. And picked put 30 photos that we liked. She charged us 15p a print plus £3 delivery and said she does all her printing in a place in the city. When we got the photos back one that was asked to be in black and white was in colour, there was half of one of.the kids cut off, heads cut off and on.the back of each photo was snapfish.co.UK. My sister went on.that site and they charge 9p a print and £2 delivery. We ended up paying £50 in total and my sister had to take all the photos, scan them and re print them via Asda.
Would I be unreasonable to tell others about my ordeal? She also told my partner who works with her that I had complained to her, what I had said and that I.didn't know what I was on about and was just trying to.scam her.
